    They did this with the WiFi update, and now with BootCamp. This should not be surprising, since they put out POINT RELEASES of OSX for $US129.

    Whatever it is you do for a living, it's quite clear that you and your organization would do yourselves a favor by dropping the pretense of being Mac users. If you're the type of people who think like Firefox thinks, then I suggest you use an operating system that suits you similarly.

    You realize its a Beta, right?

    I mean, you know, software that's not done yet? Might have some warts or missing functionality? Beta, as in "not the final product."

    So, you downloaded BETA software for free, and are complaining of instability and missing functionality?

    What, are you retarded?
